Looking for a STEM Job? A New Study Says Go to Dallas-Fort Worth

May 15, 2019
 
By Alex Edwards
Dallas Innovates 
 
 
Dallas-Fort Worth has been given the top spot in a newly released study ranking the highest number of science, technology, engineering, and math jobs in 2018. Conducted by the American Enterprise Institute’s (AEI) Center on Housing Markets and Finance, the study looked at metros across the U.S. in terms of economic vitality and affordability.
 
The AEI Housing Center used three metrics to conduct the analysis, all given equal weight.
 
1) The 30 metros with the highest number of STEM jobs last year were ranked based on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics that totaled STEM employees.
 
2) Overall total employment growth of any type since 1990 was pulled from the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
 
3) And, relative affordability for first time buyers (FTB) was taken from the AEI Housing Center’s 2017 ranking of a metro’s median home price to median income ratio.
